THE STORY:

The Concourse Fund, based out of the Bronx, NY, is a microfinance institution that seeks to provide consultation to low-income credit unions, financial training, and small loans to start-up micro-enterprises. We are located in the poorest congressional district in the country and strive to link university students with the community.
All Concourse staff work on a volunteering basis. The fund raised will directly benefit the financial literacy workshops we provide to the low income community. It will also support local enterprises who are denied financial access by other financial institutions. We have talked to bodega owners, food truck operators, and many other current or to-be small business onwers who have expressed great need of financial and community support.
